QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 09:58 PM) Big stick by Suter there. Earning that big $$$$$. He played over 30 minutes of regulation

Kings tie it up with 31 seconds left. Two games, two overtimes so far. Playoff hockey, you can't beat it.

Wasn't it just 4-4? Lol, back to the Hawks game.

Not what I expected after Backstrom went down. Come on Hawks, let's get this W.

Lawyer-on-lawyer crime...

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 09:00 AM) It is embarrassing that people are even talking about this positively. Hawk is the laughingstock of MLB. The broadcast booth is widely regarded as the worst in baseball......and STEVE STONE is in it. Hawk made a fool of himself on Brian Kenny's show and people think that Hawk won the argument because he talked the most. I don't think Harrelson realizes that Rick Hahn is a sabermetrics guy. If the White Sox embrace this TWTW idea, it would be very disappointing. It doesn't make any sense. I have the will to win. The problem is that I suck and nobody would pay money to watch me play. This whole thing is really frustrating. They are major league players. They all want to win. The thought that they don't is absolutely ludicrous. Hawk is offending my baseball sensibilities. White Sox fans (me included) used to rip the Cubs for having Santo in the booth. We have our own caricature in the booth and he's not even being hidden as the analyst. He would be the color guy. Great post. Hawk is definitely becoming very Ron Santo-ish. With legs of course.

Who scores more tonight, Sox or Blackhawks?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 09:09 AM) He didn't just defend his own particular version of religion, he claimed that Jason Collins couldn't be a real Christian because he's openly gay. That kind of language is frequently used against members of the LGBT community but not against adulterers and people who wear clothing made of more than one fabric, both serious sins in Leviticus. edit: Broussard's free to say whatever he wants, but that doesn't mean he has to be given a platform to say it by ESPN. I don't personally care one way or the other if he stays or goes because I don't ever watch ESPN. Well I doubt Jason Collins wants anything to do with Broussard's version of Christianity anyway

Jason f***ing Statham

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 08:27 AM) He could have written columns on it or started a blog or something. It's larger than Broussard, though, because the first openly gay male athlete in a major US sport (that's a lot of qualifiers!) sort of is a big deal, so it's going to be a point of discussion on ESPN etc. I guess I'm just generally incredulous towards the "oh I'm against adultery too" crowd because they seem to view and treat LGBT people differently than straight adulterers. Yes, maybe on the side he is banging chicks left & right behind his wife's back, who knows. But so far on air he hasn't treated them any differently than adulterers. He hasn't asked for Jason Collins to be banned from the NBA. He hasn't refused to cover a gay player's games. He just said that the religion he believes thinks homosexuality is a sin, just like adultery. I don't agree with his opinion, but I'll defend his right to believe in his religion.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 08:16 AM) Well that's sort of the point. He'll throw in some plausible deniability "oh I'm against adultery too" but this is only a topic of discussion when it comes to LGBT people "living in sin." So apparently, he should have interrupted previous NBA discussion with a "Oh, by the way, I disagree with the way all these adulterous NBA players live their lives. Back to you Magic". Then everyone would believe him.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 06:58 AM) Wow, how often does the that people ask for, actually happen? As soon as Wells has a bad game, the same people will call Rick Hahn an idiot for signing such a bad player.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 09:28 PM) I don't recall his tirade of Wilt Chamberlain let alone the plethora of players who fathered multiple children without ever getting married. Sure he made a passing comment today but he never felt that he had to proactively comment on their un-Christian ways like he did with his anti-homosexuality stance. EDIT: f*** that guy. I hope he gets fired and struggles to land work. When exactly was there an ESPN roundtable discussion about players sexual lives off the court? If there had been before, I assume he would have mentioned this adultery stance too. It's funny how the loudest anti-discrimination people do the most discriminating if anyone disagrees with their opinion.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 01:07 PM) What is a reasonable price to pay for an engagement ring? If it was mentioned before, I didn't bother to look through the entire thread. There's no set range. It depends on how much you make and what your lady wants/expects. I know people that spent a few hundred bucks and some that spent $30k-$40k.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 12:54 PM) Tracey Myers ‏@TramyersCSN 21m Bolland and Emery out tomorrow night. Q hoping both get back on the ice soon. #Blackhawks Looks like the playoff goalie debate has been solved.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 10:16 AM) Jason Collins comes out as the first openly gay NBA player http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/magazine/...view/?mobile=no I think it's more surprising that Jason Collins is still in the league than that he is gay.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 09:59 AM) Probably learned from that mistake, I sure did. I was calling Cutler weak but looking back, the meathead in me took over but now I realize I was being a dumbass and have since regretted calling into question Cutler's manhood. Hopefully you guys do the same... Or Wilbon dislikes Cutler, but has a soft spot for D-Rose. And good job comparing his injury with knee injuries 20 years ago. I'm sure nothing in the medical profession has changed or improved since then.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 07:58 AM) Joe Posnanski ‏@JPosnanski 10h Last time KC and Pittsburgh were alone in first place on same day? April 8, 2003. Last time this late in season? May 15, 1997. Maybe the Sox should start a rebuild and get back to first place by 2029!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 09:39 AM) They are also the high seed. The home team should have home market puck drop time. Agreed. And it's not like anyone in Detroit has a job to wake up for in the morning.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Apr 29, 2013 -> 09:12 AM) With SJ, LA, Van, and Ana in there, I'd get the coffee ready. Good point, it could be worse. The Red Wings first two games start at 10 & 10:30 DET time.
